    Was this your "post work" binge for the day?

    I was with 3 other people and we all smelled the apricot but didn't taste any.

    I got the same offer from Sixpoint, but I didn't get back to them. Jammer was really awful, but I'd probably at least try a taster of it again to revise my review after that gesture. Troy - was a new version included and is it better?

    Anyone know an Upland proxy? Asking for a friend (seriously).

    Is the Sixpoint stuff we get still coming out of the Lion?

    I don't know if it was the Lion's fault or just old beer, but the stuff I had from Sixpoint cans at a festival when they entered the market 2+ish years ago was just bad.

    No way man! Their customer service assured me it was the same quality beer and my palate is wrong.

    From what I know, they moved away from Lion about a year ago. Don't quote me on that though.

    Stigs (aka Andy),

    Are you telling lies again? Our line is still open. Over two years and we're still waiting, and you're still trolling!

    @JackHorzempa @PSU_Mike @troygreer

    btw, had some great brews from @ChurchBrewCrew earlier this spring - love that place!

    cheers

    After a little searching of the forums (I mostly hide in this thread), it looks like I could have found the information on where your beer is currently brewed pretty quickly. I will admit to not having given Sixpoint another look since that initial impression, but if I happen across some again, I'll check it out.

    Thanks for stopping by the brewery and glad you enjoyed it, if you're ever in town again feel free to send a message and I'll say hello.

    Had some Jammer at Vintage Estates around Father's Day and found it to be pretty damn tasty. Was this a problems with cans only?

    I might have one or two in the GR trading group. PM me if you need me to reach out to them.

    beer drinkers BEWARE! anyone caught not enjoying beer from @Sixpoint will be promptly and forcibly inundated with fresh 2-month-old bengali and crisp until denial is admitted and The Light known as sixpoint is realized.

    back on topic... will anyone be going to the roundabout anniversary this weekend?

    I wish I could. They're right down the hill from me, but I'm gonna be in Charlotte over the weekend.

    Anyone have a beat on what the new beers will be? Saw a picture of 2013 Heini's Good Cheer on the Facebook event page... Can't imagine that would qualify as a "new" beer.

    My guess is another fruited variant of the berliner, along with something else. But it is truly just a guess.

    I will most likely be there! I'm down to share some suds with any other BA'ers.
